Question

Write the properties of electric dipole

Answer 1

Explanation:

Whether electric or magnetic, dipoles can be characterized by their dipole moment, a vector quantity. For the simple electric dipole, the electric dipole moment points from the negative charge towards the positive charge, and has a magnitude equal to the strength of each charge times the separation between the charges.

Answer 2

The properties and definition of an electric dipole are given below.

Explanation:

• An electric dipole is defined as a group or couple of electric charges +q and -q separated by a distance 'd'.
• One of the main properties of an electric dipole is that the direction of the dipole is always from the negative to the positive charge.
• It can help in determining the polarity or polarization of a net neutral system.
• In other words, the electric dipole can be calculated or found as the product of the magnitude of one of the charges.
